[quote=Anonymous]So the two people in their 60s aren't the one pushing this, right-it's the person in their 50s? And they're saying it about the two older workers, not about themselves? I feel like the burden is also on the two older people to chime in here. I'd feel super weird knowing I was always getting preferential treatment over my coworkers. But in this context, they're not your elders, they are your coworkers and peers. Sure, running errands to pick up shower gifts is something the person with less weekend obligations should offer to do, but that's not necessarily the youngest person. For example, my boss usually does that because her kids are grown, she has no pets, and she hires people to do all the housework, yard work, etc so she has plenty of free time on weekends. It makes more sense for her to do it than for me (single mom, would have to drag 2 young kids with me) or my coworker who doesn't have a car and would have to pay for a zip car or uber. [/quote]
